Cheng Xiaoyue's arrival instantly ignited the atmosphere here; to these rural residents, she was akin to a major celebrity. Imagine, a celebrity coming here to film a documentary about a child's full-moon celebration—it was thrilling just to think about it! Imagine how proud the child would be when he grew up and watched this film.
Soon after, two opera troupes arrived and set up on either side of Second Uncle's front gate. All the actors were performing with gusto, thoroughly entertaining the onlookers.
"It must be Dongzi's doing—get him back here," Third Aunt, who had always been opportunistic and looked down on Xiaodong, now confidently believed that Xiaodong was behind this.
As Xiaodong and his group just entered the courtyard, Third Aunt immediately rushed up and asked, "Xiaoru, Xiaodong, was this your doing?"
Song Xiaoru laughed and said, "This must be something Xiaodong's girlfriend wanted to spice up, probably bringing some people together."
